Andrew Andraos, the young Pavarotti of the Middle East: comparison with Broadband spectrographic analysis
Andrew Andraos exudes simple charm, while his amazing vocal talent has gained critical acclaim and widespreadadulation. Andraos began composing and playing piano at the age of five. He received 2012 Certificate of Excellenceand Appreciation - Saints Coeurs Ain Najm and 2012 UCIP Liban for excellence in composing and playing andsinging. Andrew can reach the high C of the tenor voice like Pavarotti. And he is just 14 years old. His singing,combined with good looks and delight in performance, makes his marvelous purity of young tone and dazzlingvirtuosity irresistible. Pavarotti was an Italian operatic tenor who became one of the most acclaimed and lovedtenors of all times. This research critically analyzes both voices.On one low pitch, we obtained the same vowel sequence, C3 (130.81 Hz). This was achieved in two ways to assessany calculation of their frequencies of formant expression and potential migrations away from these frequencies.Mode 1 simulated natural speech vowels and mode 2 simulated when they sang high notes, the articulatory posethey felt they assumed. For evaluating the formant frequencies at the low pitch, broadband spectrographic analysis(MacSpeech Lab II) was used (C3). A narrow-band analysis was used for the higher pitches (C4 to B4) to captureeach harmonic's energy level.
